I have zero trust in moderators here. They tone police when it suits their agendas and leave actual reading death threats up when it suits their agendas. I’ve done enough probing to realize I’m going to leave the fediverse when I find something reasonable. I need sanity in my mental spaces.
Looks so yummy.
Ahhh heck my language.
I mean how is what I’m looking at supposed to be fish? Totally looks like pork or something but not quite right.
How is that fish?
Suddenly disappointed this is food.
You probably missed the comment where I mentioned admins would still need the ability to remove illegal content or stuff like bots using the place as storage.
Why should the admins allow literally anything when they don’t owe me? Oh right, political agenda.
I’m not against moderation. I made the Artisanvideos subreddit and moderated the shit out of it myself. I just think it’d be better for moderators to be a matter of user choice like block filters in ublock origin.
Ooohh, now that might be the way for me.
And I’m just supposed to check it every time I open a post?
And that helps me how? Should I have to check the mod log every time I open a post?
That’s all well and good, but my issue is with what I don’t see because it’s hidden.
You know how ublock origin works? You pick out lists of filters that people have made. You’re basically subscribing to moderators.
I don’t think I’m interested in a platform that doesn’t function that way. It’s the only way to make sure moderators aren’t just deciding the narrative for everyone else. It doesn’t matter if the majority of people agree with a moderator’s decisions of those decisions are wrong.
That’s ok for auditing a moderator, but no good for seeing everyone’s stance on the particular topic or post I’m interested in.
Get over yourself. I’m complaining about the format of the software, not this specific instance, though this instance IS shit.
I think moderation removals should only censor for the people subscribed to that moderator. Stuff that needs removed for reasons like people using an instance to dump data or illegal content and whatnot should be admin territory.
If I make my own instance, I’m still not seeing what moderators have removed elsewhere. It’s removed.
I still wouldn’t be seeing the content that mods are censoring elsewhere.
That looks downright industrious!
